PUBL: Eric Jan Sluijter, Jan van Goyen: Virtuoso, Innovator, and Market Leader (Journal of Historians of Netherlandish Art, vol. 13.2, 2021)


This augmented translation of an influential essay from the catalogue for the 1996 exhibition Jan van Goyen, now translated by Nicolette Sluijter-Seijffert, examines the strategies and innovations – in style, subject matter, technique, and price level – that Van Goyen used to position himself as a leader in the art market.
